Notes: 2. Measurement using the gate trigger characteristics measurement circuit.
3. Case temperature is measured at the T2 tab 1.5 mm away from the molded case.
4. The contact thermal resistance Rth (c-f) in case of greasing is 1.0°C/W.
5. Test conditions of the critical-rate of rise of off-state commutating voltage is shown in the table below.
6. High sensitivity (IGT ≤ 20 mA) is also available. (IGT item: 1)
